Eat a balanced diet. A balanced diet gives your body the nutrients and energy it needs to perform its daily functions. A balanced diet includes healthy meals full of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains as recommended by the USDA. Without a balanced diet, you could put yourself atrisk for obesity, weight gain, and conditions like heart disease or diabetes.

Read food labels. Food labels can help you lose weight, if you know how to read them. Everyday Health says it's important to pay attention to serving size, calories (and calories from fat), fats, cholesterol, sodium, carbohydrates, protein, and vitamins and minerals. Then, you can make smarter food choices like picking up a water-packed tuna rather than oil-packed, which can cut significant calories.

Focus on food positivity. Try not to think that you can't eat certain foods because you're "too overweight." According to the National Eating Disorder Association, dieting, drive for thinness, and body dissatisfaction can become internalized at a young age and lead to an eating disorder. Change your mindset to celebrate the healthy foods you're eating because they're helping your body stay healthy and energized.

Lightly coat your pan. Use nonstick spray to sauté foods. Or rub oil onto the pan with a paper towel for the lightest possible coating. According to Everyday Health, the best oils to cook with are olive oil, avocado oil, and flaxseed oil. Try to stay away from palm oil and hydrogenated oil, which can be high in heart-disease-causing saturated and trans fats.

Leave leftovers. Invest in single-serving containers. The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases says that a serving size on a food label may be more or less than the amount of food you should eat, depending on your age, height, sex, and weight. Once you're done cooking, place the excess servings in the containers to eat for lunch or dinner tomorrow. That way, you won't polish off everything in one sitting.

Butter better. Preparing your food with butter is okay, just be mindful of the amount you're adding: 1 Tbsp of butter adds about 200 calories. Let your toast or baked potato slightly cool before buttering, so it absorbs less.

Stock up on brown rice. Always keep a container of cooked brown rice in the fridge for a quick, low-fat alternative to enriched white rice, which is stripped of essential nutrients.

Get gum. Chew sugarless gum while you cook so you won't nibble. Gum can also reduce sweet snack cravings, according to a study published in Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology.

Exercise while you cook. If you have the room, keep small exercise equipment (such as free weights) in the kitchen. You can get in a few reps while you're waiting for something to cook.

Shop smart. Shop the perimeter of the grocery store, where most fresh fruit, vegetables, chicken, fish, eggs, and dairy are all located. Venture into the interior aisles only with a list in hand. Avoid processed foods like cheese, canned vegetable, ready made meals, and packaged cakes.
